Behold, the Regime Unveils Its New Catchphrase for All Political Dissent: “Stochastic Terrorism”
Revolver ^ | October 12, 2022 (3h ago) | Staff

Trannying children, it turns out, may finally have been a bridge too far. In an impressive display of political evolution, American patriots in 2022 are realizing that they don’t have to roll over and submit to every new sociocultural demand of the ruling class. Parents and lawmakers are fighting back, loudly, against efforts to transform their children into mutilated freak shows. Champions like Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh and Libs of TikTok are exposing hospitals’ involvement in the child mutilation racket, and they’re inspiring lawmakers to take action and get the practice banned.

But the left didn’t become culturally hegemonic without knowing how to win a fight. And they know the best maxim for victory is this: instead of winning an argument, it’s better to prevent the argument from happening at all.

And earlier this month, several recently-skinsuited institutions stepped up to do just that in a letter to Merrick Garland (emphasis ours):

Dear Attorney General Garland,

On behalf of the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Medical Association, and the Children’s Hospital Association, collectively representing more than 270,000 physicians and more than 220 children’s hospitals across the country, we write to urge you to investigate the organizations, individuals, and entities coordinating, provoking, and carrying out bomb threats and threats of personal violence against children’s hospitals and physicians across the U.S.

These coordinated attacks threaten federally protected rights to health care for patients and their families. The attacks are rooted in an intentional campaign of disinformation, where a few high-profile users on social media share false and misleading information targeting individual physicians and hospitals, resulting in a rapid escalation of threats, harassment, and disruption of care across multiple jurisdictions. Our organizations have called on technology companies to do more to prevent this practice on digital platforms, and we now urge your office to take swift action to investigate and prosecute all organizations, individuals, and entities responsible.

Sometimes, the only way to win a cold civil war that you’re losing is to escalate.

The targets of the letters immediately realized its purpose.

Major medical institutions demanding that the DOJ arrest and imprison their critics represents a new low in how far the American regime will go to quash criticism. But this tactic did not come out of nowhere. Liberals and the left have been stealthily and subversively designing a justification for sweeping speech crackdowns for the past decade, under the label of “stochastic terrorism.”

Stochastic-what? Ten years ago, nobody had even heard of this. But now, it’s everywhere. Homosexual magazine The Advocate:

As attacks on hospitals across the country providing gender-affirming care services to trans children increases, with the latest target being a hospital in Ohio, far-right Fox News pundit Tucker Carlson is adding fuel to the fire.

Carlson directs his viewers to engage in threatening behavior with a wink and a nod.

In what experts describe as an example of stochastic terrorism tactics, Carlson said on his program that hospital employees were criminals who shouldn’t be surprised they “are receiving threatening phone calls.”

As the latest attack on children’s hospitals that provide gender-affirming care, right-wing social media accounts have targeted Akron Children’s Hospital, the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Maybe it’s just me but I think calling american citizens you disagree with terrorists is actually terrorism.

Formally pulling accusations out of their ass.

Impressive depravity on display by the part of deep state and commiecrats here.

"Stochastic terrorism" is a pretentious phrase used to demonize - perhaps even criminalize - any political opinion the left disagrees with. So, if someone holding a belief similar to a view expressed by a conservative politician or journalist subsequently commits a violent crime, the politician or journalist can be accused of inciting that crime.

Of course, as with everything on the left, double standards apply, and the same principle can never be applied to the beliefs or rhetoric of the left, no matter how much violence is subsequently perpetrated by people sharing those beliefs.

Interesting definition: “As described by leading scholars, stochastic terrorism involves ‘the use of mass media to provoke random acts of ideologically motivated violence that are statistically predictable but individually unpredictable’”

The use of mass media to provide... gee, who could be doing that?

The "stochastic terrorism" ploy is being used with J6, so that anyone who expressed doubts about the 2020 election is being held responsible for the actions of the violent few who fought with police and smashed windows on that day.

And the beliefs of the non-violent people who were later hunted down and arrested for "trespassing" and "parading" are being used to justify harsher than normal penalties for what are minor crimes, crimes for which BLM protesters and rioters typically had the charges dropped or received a minor fine.

" . . . the use of mass media to provoke random acts of ideologically motivated violence . . . "

Stated in that way, the definition sets a very high standard of proof because it suggests that there must be a deliberate intent to provoke violence. We are now in the realm of mind-reading unless someone would take the unlikely step of putting that intent in writing somewhere.

The definition of stochastic from the Oxford Dictionary:

randomly determined; having a random probability distribution or pattern that may be analyzed statistically but may not be predicted precisely.

Stochastics are primarily known as a method for tracking trends in the stock market, as well as individual stocks.Bit the left "stochastic" is the new "THAT'S RACIST!"

Some people will do anything to make money. Now that the abortion gravy train has been derailed, they’re going to carve up kids. I thought abortion supporters were going to be cast into the lowest ring of hell. Satan is going to have to dig deeper to punish these evil, evil degenerate scum.

And another thing....

They wrote: “we write to urge you to investigate the organizations, individuals, and entities coordinating, provoking, and carrying out bomb threats and threats of personal violence against children’s hospitals and physicians across the U.S.”

I have not heard about any hospitals closing down due to bomb threats—Have I missed something? Have we heard about politically motivated acts of violence at hospitals? Etc.

I don’t believe any of this is happening. Maybe a few “stochastic” threatening emails, but the rest? No.

Here’s what “stochastic” really means:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stochastic

Using this term the way these leftists do is just a form of pseudo-intellectual gobbledygook!!!!

Moreover, neither gender “changing” mutilation nor abortion are “healthcare”!! OUTLAW them both!!!!

I see. The wittle kiddies wearned a new word! How proud they must be.

Nobody but scientists, engineers, mathematicians, economists, and financial rocket scientists ever uses the word “stochastic” properly in context.

And the morons who coined the term, “stochastic terrorists,” are none of the above.

As to the horrors of school boards and their CRT/tranny crappola, saw a video where a bunch of Muslims and Christians joined up and shouted down a school board meeting.

Ya won’t hear about that on the MSM — what, the commie trash lost control of their Muslim buddies? Naaaw. Islam doesn’t support that crappola. Only the Aholes who want to kill Jews do. The rest, like most Christians, just want to be left alone.
